Saturday madness

Yesterday was hectic. Ang spent the day drinking and sleeping and I had to look after Shadow as well as Buster and Dainty. In addition I had to go into Poole to get a “nose halter” for Buster ready for his op Monday when he won’t be able to wear a choke chain. I had to put 2 cheques in Ang’s account for her as well. After sorting all the dogs walks and getting into Poole I got home just after twelve. Managed to grab a quick coffee and then had to take the dogs out again. Poole was really busy but Buster was really well behaved. He even ignored other dogs! Eventually managed to eat about 2 and got to watch the news for a while. Evening was a bit better but Ang kept ringing for me to take Shadow out. Eventually got to bed just after 10 and woke at 7.10. Got dogs out and made a coffee. Rang Ang just after 8 and she said she’d been up since 5. I asked her about Shadow and she said she’d been out twice with him since she got up but that she was going back to bed. I fed the dogs and then took them for a poo on the back green. Came back and made a toasted fried egg sandwich and watched a little of Andrew Marr. Put Busters “nose halter” on and adjusted it so it fitted well and then took the dogs to the backwaters. Buster hated it and struggled all the way down. I let them off for a while and then got them back on the leads to come home. Someone had been driving a van all over the fields and damaged some barriers and left loadsa deep gullies from the tire all over the fields. The burnt out van was still there on the field nearest the shops. I hadn’t got the camera with me so couldn’t get any pictures while I was there. On the way back Buster was much better with his “nose halter” so hopefully by tomorrow he should be ok with it. When got back was just in time for the Big Questions. Am left angry after it as usual. Am worried Shadow needs to get out to the toilet but not much I can do about it.
